[[I am, what would you like to learn? For now Ill give you a quick explaination]]
actions- thing you do in a duel or other rp
speach- thing you say while in the rp
actions should be like this- Gra'tua ran twords his enemy, his sabers humming as he strode. As he approached he jumped foward, comming down upon his enemy with both sabers.
speach would be like this- "Good evening Inquisitor, how has the force treated you as of late?"- you also need to use " " around your speach, that way the people who are role playing with you understand where the speach and actions take place.
This is how speach and action would intertwine- The young Inquisitor walked the halls of the Grand Corridor quietly, making sure not to disturb any of the sith that were meditating. As he walked he noticed a young apprentice examining the statues one by one, taking in the archetecture of the pieces. Gra'tua walked over calmly to the apprentice and stopped to look at the statue he was admiring."Amazing craftsmen ship. What draws you to this place?" As he spoke me made sure to do it in a whisper just loud enough for the apprentice to hear.
If there is anything else you need, feel free to ask.
Darth Krathy
((Will you do a duel with me, so that way when I duel next, I will know how?))
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
Yup, do you want to do it here or in the dojo?
Darth Krathy
((Probably right here. It'll be easier.))
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
Alright I'll start. The duel will beheld on my home planet.
Place- Glee Anselm
Area- Swamp land
Rules- No death
Sabers- Doesnt matter
Force- Yes
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
Gra'tua stood in the marsh land located near his home village. The area had a swamp and dark trees that surrounded the area, making the lighting very dark and hard to see. One would have to rely on there force more here to see all.
Gra'tua was waiting for someone, a young apprentice that was sent to him to learn the ways of dueling. He would do his best to teach her and make her stronger. His outer robes were closed, his arms placed together within the sleeves. His hood was on, the shadow covering the rest of his face.
"Today she will learn the true power of the darkside." He spoke to himself rather quietly as he waited, a slight meditation was getting the force to flow through him, making him stronger with each passing moment as he waited.
Darth Krathy
She walked toward Inquisitor Gra'tua. She took in the surrondings as she walked to him. "Hello Inquisitor," she said."Do you want to make the first move or shall I?"
((Inquisitor is it alright if I ask questions about how I am doing on things?))
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
[[Of course. Your start was alright, but try and add a little detail, for instance in stead of just posting
She walked toward Inquisitor Gra'tua. She took in the surrondings as she walked to him. "Hello Inquisitor," she said."Do you want to make the first move or shall I?"
You could have done something like this.
She walked toward Inquisitor Gra'tua, the Dark trees over looming causeing the area to have somewhat of a dark feeling about it. As she approached she stopped a few yards away from the cloaked figure."Hello Inquisitor." She spoke with a somewhat dignified tone in her voice, showing she was not going to be just some push over."Do you want to make the first move or shall I?" She asked a bit hesitant to start the duel.
See how that adds a little more detail to the post, making it a little more interesting to the other poster. It helps a lot, keeping the Other poster interested is what keeps a thread or duel alive.]]
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
As the young apprentice spoke his meditation was broke, snapping from it he peared at her from the shadow of his hood. The black spheres that were his eyes examining her entire being, the senors on his head-tails picking up the smell of her.
He did not speak just yet, instead he toook a couple steps back, unfolding his arms and lowing her his hood as he took his outer robe off and hung it on a nearby tree. The young Inquisitor then walked forward, stopping only a meter away as he took from his belt, both of his sabers. A cracking howl could be heard as they ignited, his eyes still gazing at her.
"Your move." Was all he said as he held his sabers down, diagnal to the ground infront of him, his head-tails swayed as a slight breeze started through the trees, ripples started on the water from the air passing over.
[[See how detailed that is and how it draws you into the post?]]
Darth Krathy
((Ok, Inquisitor.))
She sighed, "I was hoping you would make the first move. Oh, well." She swung at his head. He already knew what she was going to do. He deflected and forced her backwards from the force of the blow.
She stared at him dazed. She shook her head to make her less dizzy. "You don't scare me. Your move," she said.
((Was that better?))
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
[[You know how you acted with my character? thats called puppeting, something that should not be done..only use your character in the post. and try to use some detail, for instance. How your clothing looks while moving, the sound of your steps. The sound of the saber as its waved through the air..all those things could make the post longer with out using the others character. Please try and revise then ill reply.]]
Darth Krathy
((Ok. Sorry, I guess that's one of the reason's we're doing this duel, to help me learn.))
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
[[Indeed, so try and revise it with the things i suggested and ill reply.]]
Supreme Commander Alor
[[I'll join in on this. To give you another example of RP style and to help you get used to multi-person RP's]]
Marix was sitting in the pilot's chair in his sleek, fast, and perfect Suwantek TL-1800. A small ship, that when produced was horrible, but he had upgraded it. Vastly improved, it was the perfect ship for one Sith to get around in.
Hovering over the swamp, Marix reached out with the Force to get a sense on the young Inquisitor and Thrax's apprentice, Cat. Sensing their presence in the Living Force, Marix directed his ship in their general direction. After traveling a few seconds, he put his ship down at a sensible distance for stealth. Getting out of his seat, he ran into his cabin and used the Force to activate a special switch hidden away from prying eyes, or sensors. Once activated, the wall panel slid down, revealing one of his hidden arsenals. Rifling through the weapon selections, he pulled out his back-up sabers and blaster.
Treading on the metal flor, he made his way back into the cockpit. Grabbing his cloak, he proceeded to the ramp, and left the ship. Turning around, he closed the ramp, and turned the ship's repulsorlifts on, so as not to make the same folly as the younger Luke Skywalker.
Treading carefully over the swamp, Marix inwardly groaned, thinking about the new pair of boots he had just bought and was wearing. As he moved toward his fellow Sith, a slight breeze kicked aside his cloak, revealing his saber hilts, gleaming in the dim lighting. Walking in the shadows, he hid himself from the two combatants and lay in wait in the shadows. He let himself be known to the duelists through the Force, and waited for them to make a move...
Darth Krathy
((Now how do I reply when someone enters the duel other than the one that dueling me?))
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
[[For now we will go with your first post, I will respond to Marix, you may as well once you have read my post.]]
Sano waited to strike as he circled her. As he made his way around he felt a strong presence of his former master, it was Marix. As he felt his presence he turned off his saber and bowed in the direction of the shadows where Marix hid himself."Good evening master, I was not expecting one such as yourslef." He said respectfully as he rose form the bow."I am merely teaching young Cat how to duel properly, is there anything we can help you with as of now?" He asked calmly as he ignited his saber again, the familiar cracking howl as it extended. He saluted his master with the blade before turning back to Cat, knowing that she would not attack him as he acted."Show your respects, Master Marix is in our presence." He spoke calmly as she waited for her to do so. He would not attack again until his master gave them the okay to continue.
Supreme Commander Alor
Marix slowly stepped out of the shadows, darkness crossing his hooded face. He slowly walked toward the Inquisitor. His cloak billowed out behind him, giving him the appearance of a wraith.
"She was not my apprentice and did not learn the repsect that you have grown used to. I am sure that in time, Master Thrax will instill it in her. But for now, her mis-understanding is okay. I must say, Sano Linguist, you have really risen quickly. I hear that you have a new apprentice. I am sure you will be a great master. But back to business..."
Marix nodded at Cat, as she stood stunned. Shaking off his cloak, he caught it with the Force and levitated it to a dry spot. Drawing his saber, he ignited one of its blades and held it in a salute. Bowing to Gra'tua and Cat, he ignited the other blade and stood in a ready stance.
"I hope your skills have grown since we last met, Inquisitor, for mine have not stopped yet..."
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
The young Inquisitor gave a slight smile to his master as he spoke."Mine have only gotten stronger since I left your apprenticeship." He said calmly as he turned to Marix."You honor me with this duel." He said respectfully as he saluted him once more before taking a stance of Makashi."Would you like me to strike first Master?" He asked patiently awaiting, his blades hummed in the air as he stood still.
Darth Krathy
She watched them. "I'll wait til you make your moves." she said
Supreme Commander Alor
"To make this fair, I will let you and Pussycat be on the same team, Gra'tua. I hope you last longer than before..."
Without warning, Marix leaped at Gra'tua, slashing high, low and vertical. The Inquisitor was pressed to block them all, but he faired better than before.
Sensing Cat standing nearby, stunned, Marix sent a little lightning her way to wake her up and get her moving. Jumping backwards, he sent a little more powerful lightning at the Inquisitor to test him...
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
Gra'tua lept back, blocking the lightning with his left saber, before sending lighting twords Marix with his right as he started forward. As he got closer the lightning intensified on his saber, his lighting growing as it flew."Master, we have been over this before have we not?" He asked calmly as he ended Marix's Lightning by thrusting his saber forward sending it back at Marix."Mine has only gotten stronger."
Gra'tua then Stopped his lightning after striking his Masters left leg for a few moments. After he ended his lightning he charged Marix, Attacking at his lower left leg and his up right shoulder.
Darth Krathy
(('Bout time. ))
She started with a scream, blocking the lightning with her saber. She threw it back at him, hoping she would be able to gat at him.
Supreme Commander Alor
((looks like i have to respond now...))
As Gra'tua's lightning shocked his body, MArix began to drain it of its power. Sucking it into himself, to use it to power his own moves. Cat's lightning only further his strength.
Satisfied with his work, he saw Gra'tua's strikes and blocked them with ease. Leaping backwards, he sent a brief, but powerful blast of lightning at each of his opponents, and not bothering to see if they had been hit, he pushed them both to the ground with the Force.
Checking to make wure his sabers were on training power, he tread to wards the fallen Sith, and began to strike at them. Gra'tua and Cat managed to get their sabers up in time to block the strikes, but were unable to keep their sabers from being batted away by the ferocity of the attacks. Marix let them get up and gather their sabers, and readied himself fot their pitiful attempts at a counter attack...
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
As the young Inquisitor's body felt pain, Gra'tua turned it into power. His time at the School of pain has tought him about the use of pain and how to control it."You were right master, You have gotten stronger. I do hope I wont let you down, Cat you can do better, I know your master. He must have taught you something. Now show us what you can do." He said as he used to force to grab his sabers, igniting them both as he charge with a flurry of quite powerful attacks that seemed to come from every direction.
[[Cat please try and use some description as I have stated above. ]
Darth Krathy
((ok, but wose turn is it?))
High Inquisitor Gra'tua
[[Yours cat.]]
Darth Krathy
((Mine? ok.Better?))
Stading on her quard, she faced him with a defiant look on her face. As she took a strike, she felt that he was going to do something incredible with his next move,
